Respondent: Hatton Parish Council

Residents attending a public meeting in Hatton expressed the following concerns about the the proposals for Hatton Parish:
-Hatton Park should be classified as a small/feeder village and the scoring for the settlement should be reviewed - some local rsident believe the scoring for the village is exaggerated.
-change of character of the district, the countryside and quality of life
-impact on infrastructure (hospital, schools)
-loss of green belt and separation between settlements
-the community is still settling following significant development in recent years
-specific sites around the parish have been reviewed and none are supported
-Whilst limited infill is accepted, the green belt should be preserved in accordance with the NPPF. Exceptional circumstances have not bee justified.
